playwriting. The Festival will take place over two weekends: Feb.

week of January. Those who have participated in the past can testify
that the Festival is an intensive, busy and thoroughly fun experience!</span></p><p></p>

present. It is possible that you could be cast in a play that you did not
read from during auditions. It is also could be possible that you may be cast
in two plays, e.g. a full-length + a 10-minute play, or two 10-minute plays.</span></p><p></p>
